Mini Beauty Haul

I recently ordered some bits online, so here’s what I got in my Mini Beauty Haul.

Pur Minerals 4-in-1 Pressed Mineral Makeup

This powder is one of my must have products. I use this as a foundation, as liquid products tend to look too greasy and oxidise on my skin. The selection of shades are natural looking, and for combination skin types like mine, this helps control oil without being too drying. This can also be used as a powder on top of foundation and contains SPF 15.

Smashbox Photo Finish Foundation Primer in Light

This product is another repurchase. YSL discontinued my favourite primer, so I reverted back to using Smashbox late last year. This primer helps keep my makeup in place and stops my skin from looking too greasy, however I wouldn’t recommend this for very oily skin types. I purchased the mini sized version of this primer, as I want to treat myself to some more beauty bits this month, but this is a good product.

Real Techniques Your Eyes/Enhanced Eyelining Set

I was looking to order a new slanted brush to use for my eyebrow gel, when I saw this set. It was in the clearance and only £5 for four brushes and a pouch to store them in. I’ll be using three of the brushes for my eye makeup and the slanted eyeliner brush for my brows.

EOS Smooth Sphere Lip Balm in Strawberry Sorbet

I’ve seen this lip balm mentioned so many times and it’s finally been released in the UK! I bought this from Boots for £6.50 and whilst I did find it a bit pricey for such a small product, it smells lovely. I’m really looking forward to using this.

I’ve been desperate to own more of Barry M’s nail polishes, so I treated myself to two new colours from the Gelly Hi Shine range. I bought Acai Smoothie which looks to be a dusky pink/purple and Butterscotch Sundae which is a creamy nude shade, great for everyday wear. I’ll be reviewing these once I’ve tried them out.

So that’s my Mini Beauty Haul. Let me know if you’ve tried any of these products.

I’ve only tried one colour from the Gelly range and it was good. Long lasting, good colour and shine. I’ll be posting about the two colours I just bought when I’ve tried them. Barry M’s fast drying range is also meant to be good x

Let’s be honest- you can’t really miss with RT brushes 👌 I am using different primer from Smashbox and I quite like it. They also say that Elf’s primer does the same job as Smashbox primer. Have you tried it?
